Is This A Healthy Diet…?
February 24th, 2010
Breakfast: A bowl of bran flakes with semi-skimmed milk and sometimes a banana
lunch: low fat butter, tomato, fresh chicken, lettuce, sweetcorn and low fat mayo. All inside either white French stick or brown bread. With 500ml bottle of orange squash (no added sugar) and a apple. On the odd occasions a pint of diet coke (ie when a sports match is on)
Dinner: usually soup, baked potato and tuna, pasta(with source) and garlic bread, eggs on toast, fresh chicken sandwich.
Pudding: small low fat yogurt
Lots of water during the day and a extra apple.
Alcohol: a bit at the weekend. Which is better cider or double rum and coke??
Exercise: I have to walk 30 mins to and from work everyday, usually quite fast. Its about 1.5 miles walk, but traffic lights make it longer.
Any advice would be gladly taken, thanx

Yeah, sounds good. Bran flakes are processed though so a more filling and healthier alternative would be All Bran or sugar free museli. I would recommend you stay away from white French bread as it is the worst of all breads – very highly processed. Much better to go for granary / brown breads. What kind of sauce is with your pasta? If it is tomato based, it is OK but creamy sauces are quite calorific. Garlic bread is not that great, but you need some treats!! Egg on toast – good if the eggs are scrambled or poached – not so good if fried in fat. Toast is good if the bread is brown / wholemeal.
Double rum and diet coke would prob be about 110 calories – not sure how many calories are in a pint of cider but almost definitely be more than 110.
Good that you walk to work but maybe do some exercise where you build up a sweat as well – jogging / cycling etc.
Your Eating quite healthy foods but WAY too much of it….
breakfast is great but maybe get rid of all those carbs for lunch…
and dinner you only need the soup and maybe a small sandwich..
